What If Nothing, Walk the Moon's fourth album, came out on RCA on November 10, 2017, three years after Talking Is Hard. The Cincinnati band, fronted by Nicholas Petricca on lead vocals, keyboards and synths, with Eli Maiman on guitar, Kevin Ray on bass and Sean Waugaman behind the kit, pushed their '80s-loving synth-pop rock into moodier corners this time.

"One Foot" was the lead single, out in September, a stomping, chant-along thing that became one of their signature songs, and promotional singles "Headphones" and "Surrender" followed that autumn. The hooks are still huge and the keyboards still glow, but there's a nervous edge under the neon that the shinier stuff never had. The band took it on the road with the Press Restart Tour, starting in Charlotte, North Carolina, on November 19. It turned out to be the last studio album with Ray, who split from the band in 2020.
